Clause 8: Operation – ISO 45003:2021

ISO 45003:2021 8.1.1: 8.1.1 General

The organization plans, runs, controls and keeps processes that manage psychosocial risk properly: removing hazards and lowering risk by matching tasks, structures and work processes to workers' needs; examining existing controls and their effect on people and the organization; reviewing current management practice and worker support against psychosocial hazards, work-related stress and related health outcomes; taking a long-term, organization-wide strategy; and designing work to prevent psychological harm and support well-being. With existing controls in view it assesses whether they suffice, whether new ones are needed where harm is found, and eliminates hazards where possible or otherwise controls them in the order of the ISO 45001 hierarchy of controls. Interventions work at three levels: primary (organizational measures that prevent harm and promote well-being), secondary (building workers' resources through awareness and training) and tertiary (reducing harm already done through rehabilitation and corrective and supportive action). Organizations without in-house expertise can use competent external help.
